Bambu Lab: all FDM printers
Bambu Lab is the youngest of the big Chinese 3D printer manufacturers and, according to media reports, is now the market leader in consumer 3D printers. The devices are considered particularly beginner-friendly and fast, but are more tied to the cloud and proprietary software than those of many competitors. With a laser module, the H2D can also be used for engraving and cutting.
